Yeah that is true, a lot of my Democrat friends voted for Ron Paul, or McCain.

Exactly. It goes back a lot further. The socialists/dem candidate have worked on subverting our process before Project Vote/Acorn/DSA got together and defrauded, started PACs, media sites, etc.

McCarthy was right. They’ve been in the schools ever since dumbing down the populace, hence we don’t know our own history and law. All that was left in the texts, they have revised and choose to radicalize/sexualize students instead of teaching. I don’t have to mention a lot of the union heads (not the workers they send out to do their dirty work).

It is the law in NH....they go first.
New Hampshire law stipulates that the New Hampshire primary will be the first primary held in the United States, and although the Iowa caucuses are held before the New Hampshire primary, because the Iowa event are caucuses, for the purposes of New Hampshire law it is not counted as a primary.

Sen. Hillary Clinton, New Hampshire Public Radio, Thursday, October 11, 2007:

NHPR’s Laura Knoy: “So, if you value the DNC calendar, why not just pull out of Michigan? Why not just say, Hey Michigan, I’m off the ballot?”

Hillary Clinton: “Well, you know, It’s clear, this election they’re having is not going to count for anything”

Levin’s whole schtick was to blame New Hampshire for the Michigan legislature going against the rules from the national committee ... again, allow me to say it is a terrible shame that black people are saddled with this empty suit for their candidate when there are so many bright black people (men and women) in American politics who wouyl dhave been great choices! Bonoir is the heart of elitism in the democrap party ... recall, he is the one who accidentally disclosed the stealth agenda to trick voters into supporting the radical anti-American approach he and his ilk represent in the democ RAT party.

Ummm... how do they know uncommitted were for Obama... where’s the full survey and exit polls questions?

What if they wanted to vote for McCain?

Let’s really screw it up and give the republican some of those delegates (so what it’s the other party, I feel he’s being prejudiced against)./s

I mean, I can argue those write ins were for McCain as well. Cough.

He's making the best argument possible - some voters didn't vote because they thought their vote wouldn't count.

This has Civil Rights Act violation written all over it.
